Morehouse Cable Tensiometer The Mechanical Cable Tensiometer Calibrator (PCM-2MD-T1) provides safety, convenience, and fast turnaround with its all-around safety shield, fine calibration force control, and versatility to calibrate a large variety of instruments. The Cable Tensiometer is equipped with several time-saving features that enable a quality force calibration on a wide range of force sensors […]
Guidance on Uncertainty Budgets for Force Measuring Devices - A2LA: This provides guidelines for identifying all significant contributions to measurement uncertainty in the calibration of force-measuring instruments. It serves as a means for laboratories to be compliant with A2LA R205 – Specific Requirements: Calibration Laboratory Accreditation Program. If you enjoyed this content, check out our […]
The New Dimension to Resolution: Can it be Resolved? Our last blog, Device Resolution and the Impact on Consumer Risk, described why best practices should be followed for conformity assessments rather than drafting individual test protocols and standards. How should manufacturers and calibration laboratories correctly calculate both uncertainty and risk on equipment? Risk, Conformity Assessment, […]
Morehouse Universal Scale Calibrator The Morehouse Universal Scale Calibrator was designed to accommodate large, high-capacity scales used to weigh aircraft and heavy vehicles. As with any other calibration machine, it is as accurate as the reference standard (load cell or proving ring) with which it is used. Morehouse Universal Scale Calibrators are designed to speed […]
Calculating Force Uncertainty for force machines. This free document identifies all significant contributions to measurement uncertainty when using a force calibrating machine. Calculating Force Uncertainty describes what is needed to achieve a measurement uncertainty of better than 0.02 % of the applied force.
Device Resolution and the Impact on Consumer Risk - Intro If a device's uncertainty has too coarse of a resolution, then you need a device that does not subject the conformance decision to higher risk. This blog will present examples that demonstrate why best practices should be followed for conformity assessments rather than drafting individual […]
The Standard Morehouse Proving Ring The calibration standard against which all others are measured is available in digital versions. Digital versions have proven to be more accurate, easier to use, and are the preferred option. Proving rings are often the choice for those wanting stability. This page is kept up for reference only. Morehouse Proving […]
3 Bar vs 2 Bar Universal Calibrating Machines Comparison Test: This paper describes the difference between these two designs. The paper compares the repeatability and reproducibility characteristics and examines if there is a significant difference in the performance and measurement uncertainty between the two designs.

TAR versus TUR: Why TAR should RIP ASAP In our last blog, Examining the History of TAR and TUR, we looked at several outdated, and to some extent wrong, practices such as Test Accuracy Ratio (TARs) and requesting NIST traceable calibrations. Remember when they buried the word "DEF"? Maybe we, as metrologists, need to do […]
